Excerpt from Pausilypon, the Imperial Villa Near Naples: With a Description of the Submerged Foreshore and With Observations on the Tomb of Virgil and on Other Roman Antiquities on Posilipo The primary object of this work is to provide students of Archaeology with a comprehensive description, as complete as possible, of the extant remains of the Imperial Villa on Posilipo. With this aim the site was surveyed, an inventory of the antiquities taken and the results of researches, carried on in vacations between the years 1893 and 1907, combined with an account of what little may be gleaned from ancient writers and with the records of previous investigators. To all this I have added a resume of my discoveries of the nearer submarine antiquities, previously described in Earth-movements in the Bay of Naples, both because they formed an integral part of the Imperial Villa and because that book, now nearly out of print, is likely to become rare. Those studies are still the only ones in the domain of submarine archaeology that have been published, but the recent rumour of the finding of a submerged Greek town on Pharos Bank off the Island of Lemnos in the AEgean seems to indicate that there may be other and wider areas for research. No description of the Pausilypon has yet appeared in English, nor indeed are the Italian accounts much more than meagre reports on the early excavations of di Pietro. It has been our good fortune to find there a classical site of first-rate importance almost untouched by modern scientific archaeologists. To many it is less attractive because the portable antiquities have been pilfered: the local scholars and antiquaries are so fully taken up with the amount of work still to be done in Pompeii and on other Campanian sites, that they cannot extend their operations; yet in point of importance the site of Pausilypon is second to none in all that classic region, and is worthy of the closest and most scientific study and investigation. Some apology may be thought necessary for the amount of constructional detail and for the numerous measurements with which the text bristles, but in a first investigation it is impossible to judge what detail may prove to be important and what may not; and in this case much will assuredly be destroyed before the next survey is ever made. My chief aim throughout has been truth and accuracy, and many of the measurements have been verified on subsequent visits, but I am only too well aware that many errors must have remained undetected, and now I am no longer in a position to check any of the statements.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
